Kartzinel et al. [http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/aob/mcv117] use genetic markers to determine the extent and overlap of genetically unique kudzu vines (Pueraria montana var. lobata) in multiple patches over 2 years, and find that, contrary to expectations, patches are not dominated by one or a few genets

The phylogeography, the study of the spatial and temporal history of a species, remains largely unclear for plant species in sub-tropical China. Zhang et al. [http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/aob/mcv112] use Tapiscia sinensis, an endemic tree species, as a model to study the phylogeographical history and p

Marquez-Garcia et al. study the effects of drought in leaves and nodules of soybean (Glycine max) and find that while the physiological impact is perceived throughout the shoot, stress-induced senescence occurs only in the oldest leaf ranks.

High light activates the xanthophyll cycle and increases the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), but the interrelationships between these parameters is poorly understood. Using a natural freshwater community of algae comprising Euglena species, benthic Navi

Sandalio and Romero-Puertas review the metabolism of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS and RNS) in peroxisomes and their contribution to the regulation of plant development and acclimation to stress conditions.

de Pinto et al. provide an overview of the redox pathways that contribute to how plants cope with heat stress, focussing on the roles of reactive oxygen species (ROS), redox metabolites and enzymes in the signalling pathways leading to the activation of defence responses.

This review explores the poorly understood effects of manganese phytotoxicity on natural ecosystems and community composition.

This study explores phloem evolution in the species-rich Bignonieae (Bignoniaceae) tribe.
